How Crowdfunding Works

Crowdfunding is the use of small Dollar of capital from a large number of individuals to finance a new business venture. Crowdfunding makes use of the easy accessibility of vast networks of people through social media and crowdfunding websites to bring entrepreneurs together, with the potential to increase entrepreneurship by expanding the pool beyond the traditional circle of owners, relatives, and venture capitalists.

In most jurisdictions, restrictions apply to who can fund a new business and how much they are allowed to contribute. Similar to the restrictions on hedge funding these regulations are supposed to protect unsophisticated from putting too much of their savings at risk. Because so many new businesses fail, their face a high risk of losing their principal.
